Spin

Geoff Stradling likes to think he’s one of the good guys. And it’s important to stay stoic in the face of a few challenges. So what if the company he’s working for shows dubious business ethics? Or that his boss is a back-stabbing narcissist? Or that his girlfriend is happily rid of him? Let’s not mention getting overlooked for that promotion. The less said about that, the better.

But his dream job is just around the corner. Maybe a couple of tweaks to his CV are required, but who cares? Money. Power. It might just go to his head. 

He can have it all… for the price of his soul.

Spin  is a cynically funny look at marketing and corporate ethics. It’s accompanied by questionable business tactics, cheap giveaways and the most gripping final chapter you will ever read.*

Inside are recipes and meal ideas form busy people, everyday people like my mum, aunty and work colleagues just trying to do it all.

All recipes will have no more than 6-8 ingredients with very little fuss or mess.

The Skinny Spell

If you could click your fingers and be skinny, would you do it?

Evie Swan has a great life, an amazing job, a beautiful child, and a big problem: she is fat. Evie is desperate to lose weight, but every diet she’s tried has failed.

One day, Evie meets a mysterious stranger who gives her a magic mirror. The mirror is a portal to an alternate universe where Evie’s life is the same in every way except one. On the other side of the mirror, she has the skinny body of her dreams.

But the spell comes with conditions. Evie has three chances to use the mirror, and one choice to make. She must decide whether to be fat or to be thin.

The decision about which body to choose seems like a no-brainer. But Evie’s adventures through the mirror make her choice less straightforward than expected.
